comments Vigorously"
ULYSSES (Grant Co. J Tribune.

ulysses (0rdnt CO.) Tribune.
Under the caption of "a State Crime, :"
the Wa-Keeney World comments vigor-
+ously on the injustice, OF the law depriv-
ing the new counties of representation in
the state legislature for the next six years.
The number Of representatives in the
House is limited to 125, and there are al
ready that number, and as each county is
allowed at least one representative, there
must be reduction in the present repre-
sentation Of some Of the eastern counties.
The Constitution provides that q new ap-
portionment may bemade every five years.
The last one was made in 1885, and under
existing laws there can not be another ap-
portionment before 1891, and the new
members will not take their seats until
1893. The injustice ofthis is readily seen,
as the result will be to deprive the new
counties of representation for the next six
or seven years. A remedy for this is pro-
posed by the World, which suggests that
the Governor call special session Of the
legislature for the purpose of submitting
an amendment to the Constitution allow
ing an earlier apportionment. The i'm
pOrtance OF the situation would justify
such course, though it is not likely that
either the Governor or the eastern MEM
bers Of the Legislature can be made to see
the matter In that light.

Christmas Greeting.

Ring out, merry BELLS an anthem Of praise.
while our hearts and our voices to Heaven "
raise,
And han With Joy the return of the morn,
The day when Christ, our Saviour, was born.
While shepherds their aocks were watching .,
An angel came down from the realms Of light
Saying, ''Fesr not, for good tidings bring;
For In Bethlehem 10 born Christ, who IL King. -
While angels proclaimed the Messiah,s birth,
With good Will to men" and peace to the earth,
These wise men arose and journeyed altar,
Guided on by the light Of Bethlehem's star.
And, coming to where Jesus was laid,
Their Offering of homage and incense there paid,
While the news of q Saviour In heavenly strains
Rang out on the air of Judea's plains.
Then down from the higher realms of Heaven
Came voice unto Us, "A son IL given"
He ascended from the Manager up to the throne,
Claiming empires and kingdoms and worlds for
his own.
But ere Christ left the earth he had thorns on h
brow;
We bring him garland of Thanksgiving now;
Redemption is furnished, the atonement IL made,
Salvation Is free, the price has been paid.
Then sing out merry bells joyful amen,
Peace be ON earth and good will to men;
Christ IL born has died and ascended on high,
And now reigns monarch of earth and the sky.
And now, old year, well bid thee farewell,
And Time will soon strike thy last funeral knell;
Chritnas has come and filled all hearts with cheer:
We will welcome, thrice welcome our happy new
year!

MISSION MARYELS.

During the last fifty years the grand
question which has absorbed the best
minds and hearts In the church Of God Is,
how to bear the message Of life to the
whole human race as soon as practicable?
Home Missions and Foreign Missions are
but two gigantic arms Of our still more
gigantic works worlds evangelzation.
Because this movement is Of God it can
not be stopped. The waves viii not be
swept back, and the tide is fast rising.
Tho very roar Of the surf is Gods voice
OF thunder calling his people to leave no
human soul to live and die without the
Gospel-fA. 7. Pieyson.
But even to day hundreds Of profess
sional children Of God do not see that God
Ii Leading on the last crusade Of history,
and that he who seeks to overthrow it
fights against God, while he who does not
join it turns his back upon the Captain of

A "N[acedonian Cry" from China.

We here quote part of the letter adj
dressed to the American Board by the
missionaries of the North China Mission:
'The kingdom of God in China, while it
is gradually enlarging, is yet but petty
principality insignificant in comparison
with this immense empire. God is pleas
ed to use the foolishness of preaching for
the regeneration OF nations, and yours is
the responsibility of furnishing, in part,
the Gospel to this people. We beseech
you to weigh well the problem of China's
evangelization. In times past the pru-
Dental committee have won the admira-
ton of the church because of the Christ
ianization in the course of q few decades
of group of islands. That triumph was,
under the blessing Of God, largely due to
a concentration of forces on that field.
Will not the same policy commend itself
to you in the care of this land? Hitherto
you have maintained in China force of
workers wofully inadequate to meet the
demands even of the fields occupied. The
combined efforts of Protestant Christen-
dom have furnished only one missionary
of the Cross to third of million souls,
taking the population at zoe, 0OO, 600, which
is probably not far from correct. Consid-
or this one province of Chini, which has
nearly the same area as the State of Flor
ida, but with population equal to that
of all the states east of the Mississippi,
with the exception of New York, Ohio and
Illinois; the weak Protestant missionary
force who are intrusted with it's evangei-
cation numbers barely forty, or one mis-
sionary to $4,000 souls.
Does this resemble at all the policy pur-
sued in the Sandwich Islands? Our
Board could place in the anzuorked por-
ton of this one province $50 new mission
aries, each one having within radius of
twenty miles population far larger than
that of the Hawaiian Islands or the whole
Micronesian group. + And this nation,
with all it's temporal and eternal interests,
cannot wait indefinitely. While this ap-
peal is crossing the ocean to you, one
and-a-quarter millions more OF her popu-
lation will have sunk into Christless
graves; and for each minute you delay
needing her claims, "a immortal souls for
whom Jesus shed his precious blood are
passing forever beyond your power to at
ford them aid. Interests unspeakably
vast hang upon your decision-interests
second to those OF no other country, if we
read Alright the potential destiny of the
nations. May your watchward and that
of the whole Christian church be: "China
for the Lord Jesus Christ, and tn our gen.
eyation."-[ Missionary Herald.
What mighty force the Christian
church is in the United States. Stats
tics show that we have $4,000 churches,
$4,000 ministers and 100000 church
members. And yet there are those who
say that the church has no influence, that
it is only small body. Let the church
be unit on the moral issues of the day,

Too Much Water.

Last night, about Z o'clock cries of
distress we're heard by several East
Sedalians residing in the neighborhood
of the residence of Pat Slaven, the
saloon keeper, corner of Marvin and
Fourth streets. Upon rushing to the
scene, the cries were found to issue
from Mrs. Slavin, who was standing
by a cistern frantically .endeavoring
to rescue her husband, who
had evidently fallen in.
The neighbors soon rescued him
but when safely landed ON terra firma
there appeared no signs of life and it
was thought death had ensued.
Physicians were hastily summoned and
after working upon him for over half
an hour, he displayed signs of life and
soon after consciousness returned. The
cistern is located in a corner of
the dining room, and is covered
by trap door which
had been left open by some one
of the family. Slavin had been on a
spree for three weeks past, and it is
supposed he accidentlly fell into the
cistern. To-day he was reported to
be able 10 be around, and his sudden
immersion which nearly ended his
life may have resulted in his favor.
